Dear Sentinel

with contributions from Mia King, Robin Jenkins

One week, my Sunday School teacher and I were discussing the unreality of any error. My teacher smiled and said, "The best explanation of error I have ever seen is on page 500 of Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures."

I opened up a copy of the book and went to page 500. I just stared at the page in awe—it was completely blank!

I was reminded that error could never affect me as long as I knew the truth about it—that it is nothing.

Dear Sentinel,

Hi, my name is Robin. I was having some trouble. There was a wart on my foot. For a long time I can remember I was very impressed by it. My mom helped me see that warts were not a part of me—the true and spiritual idea of God

We talked about how God is the One who heals you. You don't have to labor alone to heal yourself, because God helps us work. Another thing that helped me was to think that it was not my body I had to change, but that it was my thinking.

The it came to me—there was no use being impressed by it! It was like watching a scary movie and going around all day hating the bad guy. Not long after that the wart began to shrink, and them it was gone. It is the very same with mortal mind—just when its false beliefs seem so big, so impressive, it disappears!
